A playwright amongst us

We extend our heartfelt congratulations to George (U6NGA) for receiving a High Commendation for his recent entry, In Bedford With Me, in the prestigious New Views Playwriting course.

The National Theatre has recognised George’s exceptional talent, stating that a Highly Commended play is one that, although it did not make the shortlist, deserves special recognition. This remarkable achievement is particularly significant as only 43 scripts out of the 500 submissions have been selected as Highly Commended. Evidently, the readers and New Views Team were captivated by George’s unique piece of work and believed it deserved acknowledgment.

As a result of this distinction, the National Theatre will be inviting all Highly Commended writers, including George, to participate in an online workshop.

Congratulations once again to George for this outstanding achievement! We are truly impressed and look forward to witnessing his continued success in the field of playwriting. n
